Jennifer Garner Just Wore the Breeziest Summer Version of the Exposed Corset Dress

·2 min read

Jennifer Garner just put an effortless summer spin on one of this year's sexiest trends: the exposed corset dress.

On May 18, Garner stepped out in a light off-the-shoulder corset dress at the Charter Oak in St. Helena, California, for the Rockout/Knockout Cancer event hosted by Garner and Elyse Walker to raise money for the St. Helena Hospital Foundation and early cancer detection. The Alexander McQueen dress, which retails for $3,490 at Elyse Walker, features a midi skirt, a corseted bodice with visible boning, and, perhaps most important, pockets!

Though the visible corset gives the summer frock a modern edge, Garner looks appropriately dressed for the past three decades in brown platform sandals, gold bangles, and hoop earrings. She topped off the classic ensemble with a light, glowy makeup look and wore her shoulder-length bob in loose waves. Now that's how you take a trend and make it timeless.

Jennifer Garner currently stars in the Apple TV+ miniseries The Last Thing He Told Me, alongside Game of Thrones actor Nikolaj Coster-Waldau. During a recent interview with People, she revealed a prank Coster-Waldau played on her while filming the emotional drama. “I was talking to Josh [Singer], and it seemed like a background player came and sat next to me,” shared Garner. “And Josh kind of started smiling. And this person was just getting more and more comfortable next to me, and I thought, I don't know you.”

Turns out it was Coster-Waldau in a brand-new look. “I instantly was just…I was so shocked. He was in a beard,” she said. “They were testing his look for the last scene. And he just completely, completely caught me off guard. And, you know, I cried, and I yelled at them. And then we went on.”

The Last Thing He Told Me aired its finale on Friday, May 19. You can stream the entire series on Apple TV+.
